Root [MetroPCS] [ROM] KitKat 4.4.2 NEW BETA 4

Ok I just restored my old 10i version back on my phone after trying this rom. Without losing root maybe cuz i made super u a system app also installed pressy4pie clockwork mod on top of the twp recovery .. i liked the rom but.. its buggy.. i found many bugs force closes, i encountered a ui has stopped unexpectedly and since im no noob i was able to fix it right away.. now.. i did like the whole kikat experience .. but. I solely depend of my fused sd data ... i need to be able to fuse my sd without formating my sd... i couldnt even use titanium back up to restore my apps since it couldn't find my back up i tried the token poke method. Since for me is the most practical, and it didn't work.. there was jjust no way to active the script i did it manually .. no luck.. so i just restored my 10i version back and i guess il stay with it until this rom develops sd fusion .. cuz i need it BTW great work hroark loving it so far:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

i dont know what are you talking about, i havent found any bugs on this rom, ive used it since its relase and the only trutly bug i found was that sometimes spotify stops playing and that every so often after you reboot the lockscreen resets to the stock one. other than that no apps crash for me and it was really smooth.

Maybe I go more throughly in to the rom. Than u I spotted many bugs.. go to /settings /click homescreen. It force closes and sends u to the main screen. And some others .. its a lil janky also i love the movement transitions.. but it needs work

it force closes because the stock home launcher is not installed, go and uninstall it on the stock rom and it will crash too...

I installed this over my stock Tmobile phone ROM, and it seems fine so far.

I changed the JIT from dalvik to ART in the developer options menu, but except that haven't made any changes to what's been posted.

I made a call to my wife in the same room and the sound quality was excellent, but it was only inside my house.

I'll test out the bluetooth this week and see what issues come up, that's usually where I've noticed the biggest problems with non-OEM ROMs.

Thanks for the port! It's definitely wayyyy faster than the stock ROM T-mobile bundled the phone with. Later, I'll try overclocking, this CPU should be able to go to 1.6 :p

Does anyone else have trouble with backups with this rom using clockworkmod? This rom flashes without a hitch. But I get some errors making backups, using wipe data/factory reset, and restoring backups. Off the top of my head, I could only remember something about writing to cache and some mounting errors. Bricked my phone until I re flashed from scratch. Then I could restore properly with any other backup I made of except for this Kit kat backup.

I'm using a T-mobile F6 if it makes any difference.

Formatting the partition will fix the problem. TWRP has the option, can't remember if CWM has option.
